Independent preparatory schools do not have to follow the National Curriculum or submit test results to the Department for Education so there is no individual school performance data or star rating.

Visit the school's website to learn more about their unique curriculum, policies on testing and common leaver destinations (a good indicator of pupil progress). See our About page for information on Choosing A Prep School.

School Description

Little Downsend Ashtead is the perfect place for little people with very big ideas. Located in the village of Ashtead in a beautiful Victorian character property, it has a small family feel that belies its innovative outlook. Behind the doors you will find children using cutting edge educational technology to progress their learning, nursery age children learning French, Music, Dance, Forest School and Sport from Specialist Teachers and engaging in creative projects with the Lego Foundation; a project for which Little Downsend became a Finalist in the ISA Awards 2021 for Innovation and Excellence in Early Years. Children’s achievement in the EYFS Early Learning Goals is outstanding, exceeding National and Surrey averages significantly. Wrap around care is offered from 7:45am until 6pm along with an array of extra-curricular clubs.
